Definition
This indicator shows the number and percentage of grandparents who live with their grandchildren under 18 years old and are responsible for meeting their basic needs. These needs include, but are not limited to, financial support for food, shelter, clothing, and child care, regardless of whether the children’s parents are present in the household.
